Rana Siu Inboden on China and the International Human Rights Regime
Podcast: Democracy ParadoxPublished On: Tue Sep 14 2021
Description: Chinese participation in the human rights regime probably was never really intended to alter human rights so much in China that it would jeopardize the Chinese Communist Party’s hold on power. I think China, even if it may have been open to some areas of human rights, I think that we have to keep in mind that the full implementation of human rights including all of the elements of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights would mean that political competition is allowed. And that's just not something I see the current Chinese regime allowing.Rana Siu InbodenA full transcript is available at www.democracyparadox.com or a brief primer on the human rights regime here.Rana Siu Inboden is a senior fellow with the Robert Strauss Center for International Security and Law at the University of Texas–Austin.
